DJANGO : GYPSY JAZZ GUITAR
FILTER
The microphone mix goes into a vintagetype Ladder Notch filter. The Notch cuts two narrow
bands of frequencies at either side of the cutoff and also includes the following additional
controls :
●
Frequency :
Controls the central cutoff frequency.
●
Gain :
Controls the amplitude increase after the filter. This control can be used to
compensate for amplitude reduction due to the filter, or to increase the soft saturation of
the effect.
PARAMETRIC EQUALIZER
Next in the signal path comes a 4band Parametric EQ that offers the choice of Bell or Shelf
style control for the Low and High frequency bands. This EQ is modelled on high quality
analogue circuitry. Its controls are :
●
Low Gain :
Adjusts the amount of boost or cut at the LF Frequency .
●
Low Freq :
Adjusts the center frequency of the low frequency band at which the boost or
cut will occur.
●
Low Shelf :
Toggles the shape of the low frequency band. If turned off the band
becomes a shelf. If turned off it becomes a bell.
●
Low Mid Gain :
Adjusts the amount of boost or cut at the LMF Frequency.
●
Low Mid Freq :
Adjusts the center frequency of the lowmid frequency band at which the
boost or cut will occur.
●
Low Mid Band
: Controls the Bandwidth of the lowmid frequency band.
●
High Mid Gain
: Adjusts the amount of boost or cut at the HMF Frequency.
●
High Mid Freq :
Adjusts the center frequency of the highmid frequency band at which
the boost or cut will occur.
●
High Mid Band
: Controls the Bandwidth of the highmid frequency band.
●
High Gain
: Adjusts the amount of boost or cut at the HF Frequency.
●
High Freq
: Adjusts the center frequency of the high frequency band at which the boost
or cut will occur.
●
High Shelf
: Toggles the shape of the high frequency band. If turned off the band
becomes a shelf. If turned off it becomes a bell.
TRANSIENT DESIGNER
Next module is the Transient Designer. This simple but very useful tool is designed to
control the attack and sustain of the instrument. Its controls are :
